With the Explorer tour 9 Days Tour From Casablanca to Marrakech via the Sahara desert (Group), you have a 9 days tour package taking you through Casablanca, Morocco and 8 other destinations in Morocco. 9 Days Tour From Casablanca to Marrakech via the Sahara desert (Group) includes accommodation in a hotel as well as an expert guide, meals, transport and more.


Welcome to Morocco! Upon your arrival at Casablanca airport, our friendly driver will be waiting to greet you with a warm welcome. He will coordinate the transfers for each member of your group to their respective accommodations. ­ If most flights arrive in the morning and everyone is comfortably settled, a short introductory tour of Casablanca can be arranged—featuring iconic landmarks like the impressive Hassan II Mosque, the charming Habous Quarter, and the scenic Corniche. ­ If not, no worries—this first day can simply be a time to relax and unwind after your journey. The city tour will then take place the following morning, allowing you to start your Moroccan adventure feeling refreshed and ready.

After breakfast, we'll drive to Rabat, the capital of Morocco, where you'll visit key landmarks such as the Hassan Tower, the Mausoleum of Mohammed V, and the Kasbah of the Udayas. After a scenic exploration and lunch, we’ll continue our journey through the beautiful Rif Mountains toward Chefchaouen, known as the "Blue Town." Upon arrival, settle in and enjoy an overnight stay in Chefchaouen.­

After enjoying the beauty of Chefchaouen, we will transfer you from your accommodation to Fes via Volubilis and Meknes. Then, we will continue our journey to your accommodation in Fes, where you will spend your night.

After enjoying a delicious Moroccan breakfast, set off for a guided discovery of Fes—Morocco’s oldest imperial city and a treasure trove of culture. Accompanied by your local guide, explore the intricate alleys of the UNESCO-listed medina, home to iconic sites such as Al Quaraouiyine University, the Bou Inania Madrasa, and the centuries-old tanneries that still operate today. ­ In the early afternoon, leave behind the rich heritage of Fes and begin your journey toward Midelt. En route, stop in the charming mountain town of Ifrane, renowned for its European-style architecture and immaculate landscapes. ­ Continue through the lush cedar forest near Azrou, where you might spot Barbary macaques wandering freely among ancient trees. As the road winds through the Atlas Mountains, you’ll arrive in Midelt—peacefully perched between the Middle and High Atlas—where a quiet and comfortable evening awaits.

Today, we travel from Midelt to Merzouga, passing through the diverse landscapes of southern Morocco. You'll journey through the scenic Ziz Valley, famous for its palm groves and ancient kasbahs, before arriving in Erfoud—the gateway to the Sahara. ­ In the afternoon, we reach the edge of the Erg Chebbi dunes near Merzouga. From there, you'll be transferred directly to your desert camp by 4x4 or camel, depending on your selected option. ­ Enjoy a traditional dinner at camp and spend the night in a private tent under the starry desert sky.

As daylight breaks over the golden dunes, we leave the calm of the desert behind and set out toward southern Morocco’s most scenic landscapes. Our first stop is the magnificent Todra Gorge, where towering rock walls rise dramatically above a narrow riverbed lined with palm trees and Berber villages. ­ The journey continues through the enchanting Dades Valley—also known as the Valley of a Thousand Kasbahs—where every twist in the road reveals ancient fortresses, lush oases, and striking geological formations. ­ By late afternoon, we arrive in Ouarzazate, a city shaped by both history and cinema. Known as the “Hollywood of Morocco,” it welcomes you with its kasbahs, desert breeze, and cinematic charm.

After breakfast, we'll visit the movie studio in Ouarzazate, followed by an exploration of the historic Kasbah of Ait Benhaddou. After lunch, our journey continues over the Atlas Mountains via the Tizi Ntichka pass offering breathtaking sights along the way. Finally, we'll arrive in Marrakech and spend the night in a charming Hotel.

After breakfast in your hotel, embark on a day of exploration in Marrakech, visiting the most important historical and cultural sites, including the Majorelle Gardens, the Koutoubia Tower, the Saadian Tombs, and the Bahia Palace. Dive into the bustling atmosphere of Jamaa El Fna square and explore the vibrant souks. After a day of discovery, spend the night in Marrakech.

If time allows before your departure, enjoy a final cultural experience with a visit to the enchanting Majorelle Garden and the Yves Saint Laurent Museum—two must-see highlights of Marrakech. Following the visit, we’ll arrange your transfer to the airport or your next destination, depending on your travel plans. Thank you for choosing to explore Morocco with us—we look forward to welcoming you again soon!
